The Images property of ImageList is of type ImageCollection and is used to add the images to the ImageList as given here.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.imagelist.images(v=vs.90).aspx[^]
So, as such the name of the image cannot be obtained from this collection.
The System.Drawing.Image class, which is used within the ImageList, does not have a Name property as can be seen here
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.drawing.image_properties.aspx[^]
Hence, one option is to set the Tag property of Image, then read the Tag property of the required Image after retrieving it from the ImageList

Solution 3

C#

for (int i = 0; i < imageList1.Images.Count; i++)
           {
               listBox1.Items.Add( imageList1.Images.Keys[i].ToString());
           }

Hi Livingstan,

Images in an imagelist don't have names they only have an index.
